Bunion: Are you sure it is nerve pain ? The right first thing to do is to see your surgeon a nerve entrapment is possible . The pain postop should be largely gone by now. Again , see your surgeon for any and all concerns.

Have it evaluated.: Pain may last a long time following foot surgery. Have it evaluated by a professional and get the appropriate treatment.
